A Daily Dose Of Motivation

Sometimes life can be tough. Here are ten songs that keep me going that I hope will help you get back into your groove.

1. Don't Stop - Fleetwood Mac

This song gets me so hyped up. It's optimistic and makes you realize that the past is the past and the future is yours.

2. You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet - Bachman Turner Overdrive

I love walking to class with this song blasting because it makes me feel like I can do anything. Look out world, "you ain't seen nothing yet."

3. The Middle - Jimmy Eat World

Like "Don't Stop", this song has an optimistic message. Things take time and everything will be alright in the end. It's also a classic that always brings me up when I'm down.

4. I Wanna Get Better - Bleachers

I love Bleachers. This song wakes me up. It's upbeat tone and message of bettering yourself makes you feel happier.

5. Long Time - Boston

My favorite lyric from this song is, "Well, I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' on. You'll forget about me after I've been gone." It's entirely true. I'm taking my time with what I'm doing. In 15 years no one will even remember if you failed or goofed up. Movin' On.

6. Just What I Needed - The Cars

This song is just what you needed. It's upbeat and enjoyable to listen to.

7. Good Day - The Click Five

I always think of teen movies with this song. When the camera zones in on the kids of the high school all doing their thing. This song makes you feel like you're in a music video and reminds you that "you're gonna have a good day."

8. Really Don't Care - Demi Lovato

I turn this song on when something not so great happens. In the end, it's in the past and I really don't care. I can't change anything so I might as well sing a pop song.

9. The Warrior - Patty Smyth

This power ballad reminds you that you can do anything. You're a warrior. Start believing it.

10. Don't Stop Me Now - Queen

I like to end my motivation playlist with this song from one of my favorite bands. This song literally makes me feel like I can do anything. It also reminds everyone that they can't stop me. I'll do whatever I have my heart set on.


Whatever is going on in your life, just remember that everything happens for a reason and everything will work out in the end. Sometimes you just need a little pick me up to get you through the day. Hope you enjoy! If you have any other suggestions for motivating songs, feel free to comment!

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
